Because we may only want to notify part of the region - we are with
mask here, but not exact size.

Consider this: guest (with caching mode) maps 12K memory (4K*3 pages),
the mask will be extended to 16K in the guest. In that case, we need
to explicitly go over the page entry to know that the 4th page should
not be notified.

I can do this. Thanks,
